Installing

Podcast Player is on PyPI so it can be installed with pip.

To upgrade use the -U flag.

$ pip install -U podcast-player

Setup

To begin we need to add some podcast rss feeds. This is done one by one with the following command.

$ podcast add URL

If you have an OPML file with podcast subscriptions that you would like to import then you can do so with the -i flag.

The default audio player is mpv in no-video mode. If desired you can change that.

$ podcast set-player mplayer

Once you have added all the podcasts you want to subscribe to, then simply run the 'podcast' command to select the podcast and the episode you want to listen to.
